And it's out: http://www.neworleanssaints.com/Articles/2008/4/Saints Announce 2008 Regular Season Schedule.aspx I see two MNF and one Thursday night football here. Keep in mind that the NFL has "flex scheduling" and can change any of the games later in the season to Monday night at their discretion. But FFS, quit sending them to Chicago, already!
New Orleans Saints That is a very easy schedule. And the shocker. Cleveland has 3 Monday Night games, 1 Sunday game, and a Thursday game. :huh:
Brownies make some noise on defense, which they could only get better, and watch em go on a tear. Their worst defense overshadowed their pretty deep talented offense last year. Kept alot of good players intact. Just sayin. Open their season against Dallas at the pound...
Im not saying they aren't good. But someone in the NFL office completely missed on Cleveland's prestige around the country. And it also bothers me that Buffalo, NYJ, and Oakland always get prime time games. Gross.
I like the two Monday games @ the Dome and JaMarcus Russell's return to N.O. after his best performance statistically against ND that propelled him to #1 in the Draft. Monday against Minnesota will be promoted as Reggie vs. Petterson. Dorsey could make his return if he gets drafted #3 by Atlanta. Not a fan of the potential hiccup because of the travel to London but the bye week following could overcome the negatives of traveling that far and the lost focus.
I would be upset at losing a home game to London, but the Saints have played better football on the road in the 2 years that Payton has been at the helm.
jeez, could we ever play the bears at home???!!!!!!!! was the last time the bears came to the dome the freakin '85 super bowl??!!!!!! boooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! other than that i really like the schedule of course except losing a home game to play in london. thanks commish, we didn't need all that income of a full season of home games. :angryfire
